Principal’s Message

Last Saturday, the Junior Class hosted the 2013 Junior and Senior Prom, and it was a special evening for our students and staff.  The theme this year was a 007: A Night of Espionage.  Following the dance, hundreds of students took advantage of the After Prom Party at the Durango Rec Center for a safe, fun, and prize-filled party.  I want to extend a special thank you to the numerous parents, volunteers, and community sponsors for organizing this event for our students.  Thank You!
